Gwyns Fanfic rumblings and such

Hey everyone. I know I’ve been absent. Almost finished my studies so I’ll be back 🙂

But for now I need your help, or rather I am asking on behalf of all the wonderful authors I have yet to read.

I have found a wattpad account that has several stories listed that I recognise, and NOT from that author.

I’m going to break this post up…

Known stories: I’ll have a link to the wattpad page and a link to the real authors page.

Unknown stories: I’ll link the wattpad page to the story pic. If you know the story, please comment, and I will update the list in this post. Also please give me the original story link and I will link it.

AUTHORS: I have tried to report these myself, but it needs to come from the owner of the original material. Hope you have better luck!

I’m so angry right now that I can barely write. Two weeks ago, a reader informed me that an author over in Vampire Diaries had lifted some of my work from Pretty Kitty and rewritten it into their own (horrible) story. I messaged and confronted them, and the work was promptly taken down.

It got me thinking…how often is my work plagiarized? So I Googled a few lines of my stuff, just to see what would come up… and I found something that made me sick.

Someone named Alexandra Anthony is SELLING my work in her own books called The Vampire Destiny series. You can buy them on Amazon and B&N, for fuck’s sake. I’ve written to the author directly through Facebook and told her to delete my work from her stuff before I contact Amazon and B&N, but honestly, the stuff is already out…

In case you have been in hiding from flying monkeys (sniggers), the Fanatic Fanfic awards were Monday evening. I’m pleased to say that Kittyinaz, InvertedMeridian, and magsmacdonald were winners. Several other terrific TB/SVM authors won, but not many. That led to some of us discussing the Fangreaders’ Awards, geared towards TB/SVM only. But (gasps), we have heard a rumor that they are not going to be taking place this year.
